A lot of developers face a very common problem: The Learning Bag.

I call the learning bag because this is how most developers face education. They think that their career will skyrocket the more they learn. Then, they start searching and reading and gathering everything they can in order to fill up their bags the most. Suddenly, they have their learning bag full of different programming languages and theoretical knowledge but they... They can't apply it!

In this video, I'll tackle how you can solve one of the most common problems that a lot of developers face: Having knowledge but not knowing how to apply it... More specifically, how to build software applications from start to finish.

"A gig economy is an environment in which temporary positions are common and organizations contract with independent workers for short-term engagements.

The trend toward a gig economy has begun. A study by Intuit predicted that by 2020, 40 percent of American workers would be independent contractors. There are a number of forces behind the rise in short-term jobs. For one thing, in this digital age, the workforce is increasingly mobile and work can increasingly be done from anywhere, so that job and location are decoupled. That means that freelancers can select among temporary jobs and projects around the world, while employers can select the best individuals for specific projects from a larger pool than that available in any given area." (Source: http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/gig-economy)

The gig economy is expected to DOUBLE its numbers in the next years.

This number raises some serious questions about how we can protect ourselves as a software developer and how earning money will change.

What can we expect from this gig economy? What will happen if this gig economy becomes bigger and bigger?

People are often confused about which career path to follow. From time to time, I receive a lot questions from people all around the world with several questions on which path in/out development field they should pursue.

Today, I received a very interesting question... As you know, I made my career through development and I was able to earn a lot of money doing what I do.

However, during my career, things have changed a lot. I've made the transition from a full-time developer to more of a life coaching, teaching developers how to boost their careers and earn more money.

However... Would I still become a developer if I knew how to make the money I make now, or would I pursue a different career path? Watch this video and find out!
